Lesson planning eats 6–10 hours a week for ESL teachers. AI cuts that to 1 hour without sacrificing quality — if you know which prompts to use. Here’s the workflow.
Minute 1: Define the lesson
One sentence: "B1 teens, 45 min, topic = social media addiction." That’s your input.
Minutes 2–4: Generate the spine
Open the lesson-plan generator. Paste your input. You get back: warmup, vocab list, reading passage, 8 comprehension questions, discussion prompts, exit ticket.
